That You May Have Life – A Meditative Compilation of Scripture and Sacred Image

In a world of distraction and decline, this video invites the viewer into a quiet encounter with the Word of God. Through slow, reverent pacing and sacred imagery shaped by the rhythms of medieval life, we return to what is eternal.

Each verse is offered in silence, paired with contemplative scenes from a symbolic Christian landscape—a world shaped by work, rain, bread, lilies, and the promise of resurrection. It is not narration that guides us, but Scripture itself.

“I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live.
And whoever lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?”
— John 11:25–26 (RSV2CE)
